[The clinico-laboratory characteristics of pseudotuberculosis in persons with chronic opisthorchiasis].

Clinical and laboratory parameters investigated in pseudotuberculosis patients with and without CO proved patients with mixed infection to be more seriously affected. They had more pronounced polymorphism of clinical symptoms, more severe intoxication, fever, hepato- and splenomegaly, longer convalescence, more frequent relapses, worse laboratory findings. Complicated course of pseudotuberculosis patients with CO may be due to hypersensitization of the body and hepatobiliary disorders resultant from parasitic invasion.
